Searching for a thread I can't find.

A few years ago, I believe Yoopr posted a thing about folks in Minnesota, and how the temp drops and finally, they put on their sweaters. Anybody know how to find it? I have not had any success.

Shoot, I'm looking for my jacket at +45 degrees.

[Windwalker]

Roadhog, that is exactly the one I was looking for. I don't know where you found it, and I really don't care. But thanks a whole bunch. I'm printing up hard copies and I hope I won't have to look for it again.

Thanks again.

hog can you find my Tony Gwynn rookie card I lost in 1984. Unreal.

[Roadhog]

Not that one. You used it to mark your favorite meat curtain shot in a magazine you hid under your mattress.
You forgot about it, when Comodore C64 3-D Tanx came out. It's still under that mattress I suspect.
